Suggest Medications For Constipation In Infants

My grandson is 2 1/2 years old. He has a lot of trouble with bowel movements. He pushes off and on for hours before anything comes out. Sometimes it comes out in hard pellets and other times thick mush. What can we do to help him have more comfortable bowel movements.
